So, whether you're into zombies, angels, latex, burlesque, or pop-culture, there is fresh, modern pin-up art for everyone.

Book Synopsis Pin Up! the Subculture by : Kathleen M. Ryan

Download or read book Pin Up! the Subculture written by Kathleen M. Ryan. This book was released on 2019. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dangerous. Sexy. All-American--or rather All-World--Girl. Pin Up! The Subculture is the first book to explore the contemporary international subculture of pin up, women (and men) who embrace vintage style, but not vintage values. Award-winning filmmaker and author Kathleen M. Ryan spent more than five years in the subculture. It's a world of cat eye makeup, carefully constructed hairstyles, and retro-inspired fashions. But it's also a world that embraces the ideals of feminism. Beauty, according to the pin up, is found not in body type or skin color, but in the confidence and sexual agency of the individual. Pin ups see their subculture as a way to exert empowerment and control of their own sexual and social identities--something that is part of the pin up's historical legacy. This lavishly illustrated book includes interviews with more than fifty international pin ups and helps readers to understand how they use social media and personal interactions to navigate thorny issues such as racism, sexism, homophobia, sizeism, and other difficult topics. Ryan demonstrates how even within subcultures, identity is far from homogeneous. Pin ups use the safety of their shared subcultural values to advocate for social and political change. A fascinating combination of cultural history, media studies, and oral history, Pin Up! The Subculture is the story about how a subculture is subverting and reviving an historic aesthetic for the twenty-first century.

Book excerpt: A look back at vintage magazines and an invitation to enter the spellbinding world of luscious pin-up models. IMAGINED BY MALY SIRI, THIS COFFEE TABLE BOOK IS A REMINDER OF VINTAGE MAGAZINES AND AN INVITATION TO ENTER THE SPELLBINDING WORLD OF PIN-UPS Maly Siri’s Pin-up Art Good Girls / Bad Girls raises two themes: - On one side, the “Good Girls”: the damsels with soft skin powdering their faces in front of the mirror, the Tahitian girls with enchanting smiles and the brave soldiers... Their charm is due to their sparkling characters and apparent candour. - And on the other side, the “Bad Girls”: the rouged vamps with sensuous looks, the spies, the melancholic blues singers and other mis ts... The fact that they are aware of their charms makes them even more dangerous... This book is a rich and delicious homage inspired by the iconography of the 1930’s to 50’s, a concentrate of pure glamour, with a preface by Chantal Thomass.

Book Synopsis Pin-Up by : James R. Silke

Download or read book Pin-Up written by James R. Silke. This book was released on 2005-05. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Finally, a second book on glamour art by the author/artist of Bettie Page: Queen of Hearts. Now, for the first time, Jim Silke shares his hilarious first-person account of life as a "pinup" artist - from the comic-strip vixens that influenced his youth, to his real-life adventures photographing Hollywood's most beautiful starlets and models, to his slaving over magical images of Bettie Page, Brigitte Bardot and a host of other beauties. Lavishly illustrated - with over 100 new images by Silke and classic "girl artists" George Petty, Coby Whitmore, Enoch Bolles, Al Parker, Rolf Armstrong and others. Pin-Up: The Illegitimate Art is a delightful, sharp, insightful look at the "bedtime babies," "devil women" and "bare-naked ladies" that graced the walls-and hearts-of red-blooded lady lovers the world over. Silke is one of the few artists who could write this story. From his Grammy Award-winning stint as a music industry art director to his years as a magazine publisher, glamour photographer, screenwriter and comic book artist, Silke's sensual artistic vision has made a distinct and lasting impact on contemporary culture.
